Monthly Events

An Invitation to Come Home to Yourself.

Welcome to the Sankofa Events page.


At Sankofa, every month is an invitation to come hOMe to yourself.​ Each month, we curate intentional events that nourish the mind, body, and spirit — from yoga and movement to mindfulness and connection.

​

Spotlight Classes are special, limited-time offerings created to invite deeper focus, seasonal intention, and experiences that feel a little different from our regular weekly classes. These classes give us space to slow down, explore a specific theme, and gather with intention—meeting the moment we’re in, together.

Peace as a Practice

A Meditation Honoring Dr. King

Spotlight Classes are special, limited-time offerings created to invite deeper focus, seasonal intention, and experiences that feel a little different from our regular weekly classes. These classes give us space to slow down, explore a specific theme, and gather with intention—meeting the moment we’re in, together.

​

This month, our Spotlight offering honors the legacy of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. At Sankofa, reflection, care, and collective responsibility are woven into our practice—so it feels natural and necessary to pause, breathe, and practice peace together. We wouldn’t be Sankofa if we didn’t create space to honor the work of justice, dignity, and beloved community through embodied practice.

​

Peace as a Practice invites us to see one another fully, share space with intention, and remember that peace is not passive—it is something we return to, again and again, through presence, breath, and care.
